Engine paint

We did one with POR 15 engine paint on a 71 440 and it came out great, just make sure you follow the direction's on it, because you will get a better quality outcome. Shine is very nice, just make sure, if you don't paint it in a paint booth, make sure you cover everything up that is valuable to you. When we do an engine for show......... we been painting it with Dupont B/C, the outcome HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH PREP! We usually only paint a motor after it has been totally assembled. I wash the complete motor (cast iron part of the motor) with either brakeclean or laquer clean-up thinner with a stiff brisle acid brush, then blow dry with compressed air. Anything that you are painting that's not cast iron, aluminum, steel, etc. make sure you use a very good brand bare metal or epoxy primer first before paint. I prefer to do this step before I assemble these part's to the motor, then paint. Everyone does thing different, this is just what we prefer. Hope this help's. Dodge33:cheers:
